 This is my new drive car. Will be a fix up in the front. Kangaroo hit light/ bonnet another I think went under, holed the fuel tank. Plastic ha another fitted Price without wheels and tyres $250AU. 185KM milage, that is low indeed. I have all that better brakes/ tyres anyway on my current ford. This car is so good. Normally 20 years of age the clear coat is lifted. Must have been garaged. Front can be porta powered back. Then a permit to drive home. I have less than a month to tidy for rego. |

It would probably be a 2000 model they came out in 1999 to 2001 and it would be 185000 Km I would say, out there they travel 180km just to drive up the road to visit friends.

Yes lol 2hr drive to bunnings hardware. Rather remote here.       Burgandy Au Series 3. You can see bad damage door no close. $150AU has incredible interior. Black trims. Momo steering.Body kit. It tells a story. Motor stuffed, they did not maintain it. Then when the old work horse died they flogged it, see guard. BA falcon. Someone loved it I guess. They bought panels for it. These are the newer stronger motors for conversions  Black mafia car. Old mate shitty took to it with a tomahawk. See rear guard. $50AU V8 Headers like new. Black leather electric seats. IRS White Fairlane. Another V8. I find straight away people try to get these motors, when these cars moved there. |

5 hours it took today, raining lite for the most of it.. Get the silver ford in running condition  Still needs plenty of work, but rego is doable. edit. Excitement I guess up an hour before the alarm clock. Mike actually is 77 years old this year, loves his Fords. He helped me that day Sunday. He's happy to see the car wanted, appreciated. Struggles with his bad back, I had to do the harder things like lower radiator hoses. So what did we do? Silver cars bonnet + radiator out. Porta powered the radiator support panel. Close enough, x2 hours there frikken around. Another needs welding in. Donor car was the Burgundy AU3. Gave up it's filthy turd brown mud/ rust water radiator. I don't get this?  It's a new replacement radiator not looked after with coolant? Thermo's + headlight " junk faded " + bonnet + grill. Like said alignment is rough, till it gets more work. Hood lining sagged another job. Have a spare silver guard, it's damaged too bad on the car. Interior of windscreen is that grey tinge. Previous owner a smoker! that shit never goes! In the vents, will keep crapping up the windscreen when fans are on. Why is rego +$200 for a fairmont over a base forte model? I don't get that? Buy a better car, get punished in the wallet. Near identical kerb weights The Burgundy Ford will give up it's Momo steering wheel too. Why I bought that car, tickford enhanced lol $150 with spoiler kit. Only wanted the steering wheel  |
